Board Game Arena

Welcome, devotees! The celestial gaze of the Great Inky One falls upon you; do you have what it takes to be the most dedicated follower?

Cosmoctopus is an engine-building, tentacle-gathering board game for 1 to 4 devotees. Guide Cosmoctopus through the Inky Realm, a flexible configuration of tiles, to gather resources and obtain powerful cards that represent relics, scripture, hallucinations and constellations. Harness the power of these bizarre objects and experiences, craft potent card combinations and be the first to gain 8 tentacles to win!

Your turns are simple; the game’s excitement and depth lie in working out how best to use an ever-powerful hand of cards. Unlike some other engine-builders, you’ll be straight into the fun, upgrading your engine from turn one. With variable setup, easy ways to alter difficulty and optional solo and co-operative modes, Cosmoctopus offers a versatile tabletop experience, whatever your gaming tastes.

Special thanks to Lucky Duck Games and Paper Fort Games for making this possible!

This is very exciting, we just found this game a few months ago and really enjoy it and I've been hoping to see it here on BGA. If you're looking for more alpha testers, I would love to help.

Just pulled Cosmoctopus off the shelf yesterday and played two games, found out it was entering Alpha here, Also super excited and can't wait to play it!

Played this at a convention last month. Excited to see it's in alpha!

How do I get into the Alpha for this one?

Can I join to the alpha? Thanks

That is too bad. I guess that just means I need to play more games.

It entered public beta this morning, so it's available for everyone (including those looking to play more games).
